Wish these companies thought about names for something so big.  Litecoin sounds like a lite version of bitcoin.    even lightcoin sounds better.     also dunno way bytecoin thought that was a good name unless the idea is to confuse everyone

You know how when Bitcoin started getting traction, the press responded with stories about how it was being used by criminals?

Well, litecoin is getting traction - and guess what? The press is responding with stories about how it is being used by criminals:

Bitcoin, which has for years been the currency of choice on the so-called dark web, is falling out of favor among criminals. This is not surprising given bitcoin’s sluggish processing times, and law enforcement’s growing ability to track its transactions.

More surprising is what these criminals are turning to instead. Rather than using one of the newer digital currencies with extra privacy features, such as ZCash or Monero, the most popular alternative is the bitcoin clone, Litecoin.

Those are among the findings laid out in a new report by Recorded Future, a threat intelligence company that monitors criminal forums on the dark web where many illegal transactions are arranged. Here is a key paragraph from the report:

    Litecoin emerged as the second most popular currency, with 30% of all vendors who implemented alternative payment methods willing to accept it. Dash is closely trailing Litecoin with 20% of the market. Unexpectedly, Bitcoin Cash was the third most common cryptocurrency with 13% of vendors trusting it as a payment method.

The report also notes that Litecoin is especially popular in Russia, while English speaking countries favor Monero, which many people consider all but untraceable.

LTC had a nice start. Now, as in the whole market, the LTC has fallen in price. The LTC is one of the oldest projects on this market. I believe in good prices. It is not an investment recommendation.

[Evil Genius]

I expect  500-700 $ for 1 LTC in 4th quarter of 2018.

Litecoin the best coin to invest in this year. LTC going to very well.From the beginning Litecoin travel in good condition. Every day increased the value. Last year it's reached maximum $356.this years it will reach again then go to high value.

[ransow72]

What good in this coin exclude 2.5 min transaction and Charlie Lee as main marketer? I know that some people in dark net change BTC for LTC but exist more interesting coins for that. For example XMR

[HatakeKakashi]

For me I think the possible price of the litecoin become $1000 so it's better to buy litecoin now. Because if you have litecoin you cn gain more profit. For sure those people who bought litecoin when the price is very cheap or 1 digit are now very happy because some of them for sure are now rich or earn big profit.  I hope I go back to the prjce when it cheap and buy thusands of litecoin and hold it for few years to become rich.

I honestly hope there are nice developments going on with the coin.
As I currently feel this coin is underperforming compared to others, in terms of price. On the other hand, I love using it for transactions, as its quick and cheap, a nice alternative for eth for making transactions. So the underperformance is not a bad thing by this perspective.
If they make developments to further improve the coin, I might be looking into buying more of it.

[Savik]

I think there have to be some big changes coming for LTC. I still am stuck on the Charlie Lee drama with selling all of his coins. It seems like a move that would be required if he was going onward to develop bigger partnerships with LTC and other companies (FB?)

[judeafante]

massive potential for 2018 and beyond.
some very tasty development ongoing in litecoin.
here is a recent article i picked up yesterday,
https://newsstand.google.com/articles/CAIiEPkcgILNeNuPMA4Cwhnmw-0qFwgEKg4IACoGCAow9891MIGZDDDYhrIF

'Litecoin is technically very similar to bitcoin although it is much cheaper to use. So many crypto-savvy businesses are adding litecoin support this year with a few simple steps.'

'The start of new privacy features, cross-chain swaps and smart contract capabilities'

This is good for litecoin holders they should move to a much higher spot because of this update, any news about the litecoin cash how they perceived about this fork, of course this is a new competition but we still prefer litecoin because there is nothing to change everything works fine with Litecoin.

[Delinquency]

One of the most known projects of litecoin market, I trust in LTC in the future. It's very easy for $ 500 litecoin

[saieshprakash18]

Litecoin has much better transaction speed 56tps as compared to bitcoins 7tps

[Dragonrage201]

Litepay is coming sometime this month. That will be very good for Litecoin future.
Short term, there is a Litecoin Cash fork coming on Feb 19th that may cause a
price boost too.

[Coolfackoff]

LTC is a great coin and super fast compared to BTC and others, Always use it for transactions, even despite additional costs for exchange them to ETH or BTC for trading on exchanges!!
HODL nice amount of them in my Core wallet!

[rhamzter]

For me I think the possible price of the litecoin become $1000 so it's better to buy litecoin now.

Yeah your right, value of litecoin now in the market seems healthy because more people now are looking for some alternative coin to invest. I guess they want to promote litecoin now that why their price are continuously increasing.
Buying litecoin now is a good strategies due to their price recently was not yet on the maximum value so I believe that if we buy now, we will earn a lot of income in the near future.

I see LTC hitting $1,000, may take 2-3 bull runs but it'll get there!

[alyssa85]

Litepay have announced their launch date to be Feb 26th. Here is their tweet about it:

We started because the people asked @Bitpay to accept LTC. They wouldn’t, so we took the challenge. Infrastructure for LTC February 26 🚀#PayWithLitecoin #LitePay

The coin is of course reliable but not very used. The future price will also depend on the facts, how successfully and how fast will be implemented the planned new features.
